Activities for Thurday, Oct. 15

All classes went to the gym today due to rain- we had trikes, and basket balls out to play with.

Willow Room- T/TH

We had a new child start in our class today. Our story today was Fire Fighter for a Day and we had fire fighter Jim visit our class today. He put on his uniform and his air mask and showed us how he would sound if he ever came to help us in a fire.

We made fire fighter hats and decorated with stampers.

Easel- yellow and red glitter paint.

We had Mr. Potato head and pieces, , magnadoodle, and magnetic shapes out today.

We fingerpainted with shaving cream on big trays and traced circles with our fingers in the shaving cream.

We did some favorite songs, "dog in school", "Herman the worm" and "October song".

We played a rainbow color guessing game and worked on some floor puzzles.

Oak Room

We read "The biggest boy" by Kevin Henkes.

We worked on our self portrait pages for our "all about me book" , we brought in mirrors so the children could look at themselves to draw their self portrait. We measured how tall the children are.

We had out an apple tree matching game today- you place the correct number of apples on each tree.

We sang a phonics song called "funny fall animals", which helps children learn the sounds of beginning letters. we also sang "The ants go marching"

We had a visit today from Firefighter Jim and he put on his whole uniform and showed us what he would look like if he ever came to help us in a fire. He put on his mask and talked through it and breathed through it so we would know what it sounded like too.
